CHAPTER 1 MANAGING THE CIUADMIN USER ACCOUNT

There is only one user account to access the CIU 888 and the CIU 888

Web interface, i.e. the ciuadmin user account. To increase system

security, it is recommended to change the password of the ciuadmin

user account at regular intervals (e.g. every 6 months).

1.1 Changing the password of the ciuadmin user account

To change the password of the ciuadmin user account, a PC/laptop with

a web browser installed is needed. In addition, a Cat. 5 Ethernet cable

(patch or crossover) is required to connect the PC/laptop to the

CIU 888.

NOTE: The Internet Explorer version 10, 11, and Google Chrome are supported.

Perform the following steps to change the password of the ciuadmin

user account:

1. Connect the PC/laptop to the Service port of the CIU 888 using the

Ethernet cable. The Service port is located at the front of the CIU 888

(see FIGURE 1-1).

NOTE: The password must meet the following requirements as regards to complexity:

It must:

- Not be the same as the previous password

- Not be a dictionary word (e.g. password)

- Have a minimum length of eight characters

- Contain at least one digit and one special character

- Not contain special characters !, ʼ and ˮ

The Change Password window is closed. If the password has been

changed successfully, the following dialogue box is displayed (see

FIGURE 1-6).

7. Click OK to close the dialogue box.

1.2 Enforcing a password change during next login

To further improve system security, a user can be forced to change the

password the next time he logs in to the CIU 888.

Perform the following steps to enforce a password change during next

1. Click in the section menu bar of the CIU 888 Web

interface,

Make sure you do not forget the password to log in to the CIU 888! There is no possibility to

retrieve a forgotten password.

Note: Although there is no possibility to retrieve a forgotten password, there is a way to reset

the password to the initial password (i.e. CIU888@Enraf) by performing a Reset to factory set-

tings operation via the CIU 888 display. Downside of a Reset to factory settings operation is

that it removes the site database, which has to be re-uploaded to the CIU 888. Also, the W&M

and configuration key switches must be opened before performing this operation.

If you wish to change the password of the ciuadmin user account in a redundant system setup,

you need to change the password for both the primary CIU 888 and the secondary CIU 888. It

is recommended to keep the same password for both CIU 888s. In this case, you only need to

remember one password.

Enforce password change during next log in option will be unchecked

automatically.
